“We are satisfied with the fact that we are fighting directly with the Israeli enemy,” Húzi said in a statement to the Al-Masíra television channel.
As he said, the militia is constantly improving its capabilities and is now “stronger than ever”. He also stated that Israel’s retaliatory strike on Hodeida in Yemen will lead to further attacks against the Jewish state.
The leader of the Iranian-backed militia also emphasized that the long-range drone that struck Tel Aviv was a self-developed weapon.
According to the Israeli military radio’s report based on official sources, the 2000 launched nearly two hundred missiles against Israel in the past nine and a half months, but these were intercepted by the Western allies or Israel’s air defenses. On Friday morning, the 20’s drone reached Tel Aviv from the Mediterranean Sea, where it exploded, killing one and injuring several Israelis.
In response, Israeli air force fighter jets attacked the Yemeni port city of Hodeida with intensive airstrikes on Saturday, killing at least six people.
Mohammed Abdul-Salam, a spokesman for the Houthis, told the Qatar-based al-Jazeera television that the militia would continue its attacks against Israel and would not abide by international rules on armed conflict. He said that there would be no limits as far as the answer of the twenties is concerned. He added that all vital facilities will be targeted.
